A Day of Success

We owe our supporters great big heartfelt THANK YOU! On October 3rd, The Pittsburgh Foundation once again hosted the Pittsburgh Day of Giving, an online event designed to help area nonprofits raise much-needed money, and donations up to $1,000 were matched.

The show of support from our community was phenomenal! A very generous $24,100 was donated, and with matching, we will receive $26,416, bringing us even closer to building our own dedicated facility and our Olympic Dreams. To date, we have raised a total of nearly $447,000 in funds, equipment, and land. Way to go! That's a huge dent in what's needed, but we still need more. Let's keep the momentum going!

Did you miss the Day of Giving? That's OK! You can still donate by visiting our website (www.pittsburghcurlingclub.com) and clicking on the "Help Us Build" button. Every single dollar is appreciated!

About Us

Since our founding in May 2002, the Pittsburgh Curling Club, a 501(c)3 organization, has introduced the Olympic sport of curling to over 4000 people. During this time, we have seen the popularity of curling increase at a steady rate. In 2012 alone, over 1000 people were able to experience the sport through our series of league and learn-to-curl programs. We are now actively trying to raise money to build our own dedicated facility.
